Discover Your Chronotype--and the Best Time to Eat Lunch, Ask for a Raise, Have Sex, Write a Novel, Take Your Meds, and More

By: Michael Breus PhD, Mehmet C. Oz - introduction MD

Narrated by: Michael Breus PhD

Learn the best time to do everything—from drink your coffee to have sex or go for a run—according to your body's chronotype.

Most advice centers on what to do, or how to do it, and ignores the when of success. But exciting new research proves there is a right time to do just about everything, based on our biology and hormones.

As Dr. Michael Breus proves in The Power Of When, working with your body's inner clock for maximum health, happiness, and productivity is easy, exciting, and fun. The Power Of When presents a groundbreaking program for getting back in sync with your natural rhythm by making minor changes to your daily routine.

After you've taken Dr. Breus's comprehensive Bio-Time Quiz to figure out your chronotype (are you a Bear, Lion, Dolphin or Wolf?), you'll find out the best time to do over 50 different activities. Featuring a foreword by Mehmet C. Oz, MD, and packed with fascinating facts, fun personality quizzes, and easy-to-follow guidelines, The Power Of When is the ultimate "lifehack" to help you achieve your goals.

This is a wonderful audiobook. I have been dealing with insomnia for 58 years.Now I actually feel sleepy at night.Brain fog gone

This is a wonderful book.i now get sleepy at night .No more brain fog.No more body aches.

This book is nothing short of amazing!

Even though (as I was pleased to find), I was already implementing a lot of tips from the book, I got so many other useful lifestyle tips (professional, personal and miscellaneous) that I have decided to start implementing...and I can definitely see the positive effects after only a week.

Even when it comes to the ideas that weren't so new to me, I was fascinated by the explanations behind them. They were backed by scientific papers and references (all listed in the book, of course), but in a simple, nonchalant manner.

What I loved most about the book was it's thorough, systematic organization, which makes it easy to understand and, what's even more important, to skim through after reading. This is a book that I will definitely have to have on my bookshelf and that I will return to many many many times.

Dare I say it...this may be the most useful lifestyle/productivity book (at least on a general level) that exists out there at the moment.

Such a great book!

This book was so interesting and informative! I really enjoyed how so many different ideas could be applied to my life and to my relationships with others. I would highly recommend this book!!

Insightful and well read

The author does a good job of supporting his theories with tons of data and studies from around the world. The narrator does a good of conveying the information in a way that kept my interest, with warm inflections, even when going over somewhat dry data.
I downloaded the attached PDF and have been going back to it often.
I highly recommend this book.
I knocked off one star because they never really addressed how to manage these issues in a 2nd shift lifestyle or in an area that doesn’t get dark until 9 or 10pm in the summer time.

A Little Bit Tough to Fully Grasp in Audio Format.

Though I am thrilled to have just about any book available to me as an audio book, I think this one would have been better in written format. And when I consider the way I struggle through a learning disability to read, that's saying A Lot!

In fact, I may just head right over to Amazon's tangible book store and buy a physical copy so that I can accentuate the audio performance with the letters & numbers that will tantalize my left brain while I Re-Listen to this jam-packed book that will begin spilling over with facts, numbers, percentages & "step-by-step how-to's" the second you first open the file‼️

ENJOY 😉
